Project Time Management
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| identifies the specific activities to be performed by team members and stakeholders to generate project deliverables | Defining Activities |
| s a tabulation of activities to be included on a project schedule. | activity list |
| provides more schedule related information on each activity | activity attribute |
| performs the review on activity list and attributes, project scope statement, milestone list, and approved change requests to determine the relationship between activities | Sequencing Activities |
| schematic display of logical relationships among, or sequencing of, project activities | Network Diagrams |
| network diagramming technique wherein the activities are represented by arrows and connected at points called nodes to show the sequence of activities. | Activity-on-Arrow approach |
| refers to the starting and ending point of an activity. | node |
| Locate all of the activities that begin at Node 1. Draw their finish nodes and draw arrows between Node 1 and each of those finish nodes. Put the activity letter or name of the associated arrow. | Network Diagrams |
| network diagramming technique that uses boxes to represent activities useful for visualizing certain types of time relationships | Precedence diagramming method (PDM) |
| 4 types of dependencies or relationship between activities | • Finish-to-start • Start-to-start • Finish-to-finish • Start-to-finish |
| • most project management software uses the PDM • PDM avoids the need of using dummy activities—have no duration and no resources, but required on AOA to illustrate logical relationships | PDM Precedence diagramming method |
| makes use of the outputs of all the preceding project time management processes to verify the start and end date of the project | Developing Schedule |
| bar chart that gives a standard format for showing project schedule information by listing project activities and their corresponding start and finish dates in a calendar format | Gantt Chart |
| guidelines suggesting that milestones should be specific, measurable, assignable, realistic, and time-framed | SMART criteria |
| is used to evaluate the progress of a project by displaying the actual schedule information. | Tracking Gantt chart |
| project network analysis technique used to predict total project duration prevents project schedule overrunS | Critical Path Method |
| Series of activities that determine the earliest time by which the project can be completed considered the longest path through the network diagram and has the least amount of slack or float | Critical path |
| based on the fact that, like a chain with its weakest link, any complex system at any point in time often has only one aspect or constraint that limits its ability to achieve more of its goal | Theory of Constraints (TOC) |
| method of scheduling that takes limited resources into account when creating a project schedule and includes buffers to protect the project completion date | Critical chain scheduling |
| additional time to complete a task | Time buffers |
| network analysis technique used to estimate project duration when there is a high degree of uncertainty about the individual activity duration estimates | PERT Analysis |
| identifies the status of the schedule, manipulates the factors that cause schedule changes | Controlling Schedule |
